[Issue] Error handling timeout error when "no IP addresses found for host"

[i-sylar]

When i do a scan for a domain that throws in a "no IP addresses found for host" on my ubuntu workstation, i immediately get an error "[FTL] Could not run enumeration: No targets specified" which is fine. However, running the same command on my digital ocean droplets leaves it hanging at the "no IP addresses found for host" till i kill the script/command. Any work around for this or reason why?

PS a sample command is
sudo naabu -p - -host watch.pubgesports.com -v -timeout 2000

Hey @i-sylar,

host watch.pubgesports.com
Host watch.pubgesports.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

watch.pubgesports.com doesn’t have any record associated with it to scan for, can you run the above command on the box from where it's getting scanned and share the output?

seems to be an issue with the latest version 2.0.3. 2.0.2 seems to handle this error well. Here is a screenshot of both outputs

As visible, nxrecord lookup didnt return any valid response. Version 2.0.2 handled this error by giving the no target specified. Version 2.0.3 on the other hand freezes at the "no ip address found" and does not terminate execution.

Hope this helps.

Thank you @i-sylar for sharing additional context, I can confirm it's a valid bug and timeout issue when IP is not found.
